PAGE A.IDAHO STATE JOURNAL POCATELLO, IDAHO, SUNDAY, AUGUST NMPF Says Miik Prices To Increase WASHINGTON (AP; The price consumers pay for milk at supermarkets will increase by up to four cents a half gallon by "inter and stay there, a milk industry spokesman said today. Patrick Hcaly of the National Producers Federation said the trade association felt consumers should know about the corning price hikes now, before they begin to see them next month. When the price the fanners gets for his raw milk, which has been steadily rising since early July, makes its seasonal decline in the spring, processors and bottlers of the milk probably will not pass on that decline to the retail market because of the need to pay for higher a i costs. Healy predicted. The boost at the farm level now, however, will be reflected as soon as the industry structure allows probably in about two months.

Healy said supplies of butter, powdered milk and cheese are dwindling, so prices for the milk from which they are made were bid up by 24 cents per 100 pounds last month and probably will rise another 30 to 35 cents this month. Hence, he said, the retail half- gallon price will rise by two to four cents through November "and probably stay there." FRANCIS E. SIBBETT MONTPELIER--Mrs. Francis E.

He changed the name Andrus Scores Racing Board BOISE, idaho (AP)-Gov. Cecil D. Andrus says horse racing should be transferred to the attorney general's office for regulation--or outlawed if it can't be run properly.

In an interview taped for televising Sunday, Andrus said "I am not satisfied with the exposure that horse racing has been receiving in Idaho. I am satisfied with the three men who make up the horse racing hope they are running it, but frankly I am sick and tired of the rhubarb that comes from this industry. "And I'm of the mind to tell the legislature 'gentlemen, repeal the horse racing act or do something in order to get this thing behind said. "I've said constantly if we're going to have it it's got to be run right. It's got to be run clean or we shouldn't have it," the governor said.

"I'm not saying it isn't being run clean. I honestly don't think it's improving." Asked if he thought the horse racing commission should be left under the Department of Law Enforcement or transferred to another agency, the governor replied, "I think a good place for that is under the attorney general's discuss it with Wayne (Kidwell, the attorney general) to see if he won't take it over." Andrus said he was "frustrated over the accusations (of ir- regularities at Idaho tracks) that never quite develop but are always rather wash my hands of the whole thing." Andrus said many times the disgruntled comments upon horse racing "depend upon whether they had two dollars on the winner or two dollars on the loser." The governor said he would appear Idaho Public Utilities Commission hearinng personally t'his fall to testify concerning Idaho Power application to build an $800 million coal-fired generating plant 24 miles southeast of Boise. Some environmental groups contend the plant is unnecessary and have expressed concern it will pollute the air and water. Andrus will announce during his taped interview that he has appointed State Sen. E.W.

(Dick) Smith, R-Rexburg, to succeed Sen. H. Dean Summers, R-Boise, as one of two legislators on the Idaho Endowment Investment Board. Summers notified the governor six weeks ago he did not want to be reappointed. Summers said he had banking interests and that a new conflict of interest law enacted by the 1975 legislature would preclude his bank from doing business with the board.

Andrus said he was having difficulty finding other replacements on the board "because of all this hoopla in the press." BOISE, Idaho (AP)-Gov. Cecil D. Andrus says he may seek a third term as Idaho governor rather than run for U.S. Senate in 1978 In an interview taped for televising today, the governor said he and his wife, Carol, have been studying the possibilities, but have not reached a decision. Asked if he had to decide today whether he'd run for governor or U.S.

Senate, Andrus replied: "If I had to make that decision today, I made a com- mitmont to the people I would fulfill the term of office so my decision would obviously be to stay as governor. Frankly, I like to live in Idaho. "The problem with being a United States Senator is that you have to live in that mess back there. I'm not too sure that I don't want to be in a position where I can take my fly rod and go to the South Fork of the Boise or to my cabin on Lake Cascae or someplace and enjoy a little free time when we can get it together. Back there to stand and watch the sewage flow down the Potomac is not the best." Asked if he thought he could beat Sen.

K- Idaho, whose term expires in 1978, the governor said "It would be a tough race. There's no question about that." Andrus said Sen. Frank Church, D-Idaho, is his first choice for the Democratic presidential nomination. But he said Church is not an announced candidate at this time. "I can not and will not support George Wallace's candidacy," Andrus replied when asked which of the Democratic presidential hopefuls he could and could not back.

"I am somewhat hesitant in regard to a couple others, but I can support almost anyone else besides George Wallace." He said former Gov. Jimmy Carter of Georgia and Congressman Morris Udall of Arizona are "two outstanding individuals who would make good presidents. They have the necessary grey matter, integrity and background to do the job. The question is whether they can get the necessary exposure nationwide to be a viable candidate." Andrus said both incumbent Republican congressmen in Idaho, Steve Symms and George Hansen, "have credibility problems." But he said Democrats will have to come up with outstanding candidates in 1976 to beat them. MARY LOU KIRKPATRICK Mary Lou Kirkpatrick, 79, of St.

In Kent State Trial Jurors Into Second Day Idaho Income, Property Taxes Termed Too High by Yost Both income and property taxes are too high in Idaho, according to Max Yost, executive manager of the Associated Taxpayers of Idaho. He made the statement at a tax school Friday in the Bannock Motor Inn. "The income tax on the individual in Idaho at the present time 1 feel is too high," Yost said.

He added he felt both corporate and individual income taxes in certain categories were high in Idaho compared to other states. "I believe the property tax in Idaho is administered much better than it was a few years ago," Yost commented. He also said he felt "property taxes are too damn' high," but immediately added he felt such a statement could be misleading. Without state aid, property taxes throughout Idaho would be at least twice as high as they are now, Yost said. Drawing graphs throughout his presentation, he showed Idah's property taxes actually staying lower and more stable than other income sources.

(AP Wirephoto) And Discusses 78 Campaign CLEVELAND (AP) A federal jury ended its second day of deliberations Saturday in the civil damages suit stemming from the 1970 Kent State University shootings. The jury of six men and six women went behind locked doors at the federal courthouse six minutes before their 9 a.m. EOT scheduled starting time.

The jury worked for six hours Friday after receiving the case near noontime. During Friday's deliberations, jurors called for maps used throughout the 14-week- smen opened fire May 4, 1970 during a campus antiwar rally are seeking a total of $46 million in damages.

They also claimed the victims were injured recklessly by the defendants. The defendants said that officials acting in the name of the state could not be sued for damages, that the troops acted in self defense and that the victims' negligent acts contributed to their injuries. "Sympathy has no place in the trial of a lawsuit," Young ioid the jury in his charge before placing the case in its hands. The judge said the jury had to decide whether Rhodes in- A breakdown of the state's procedures for calculating taxes on utilities gave the group food for thought at lunch.

Featured speaker was Clifford Vaughn, State Tax Commission utility analyst. Vaughn noted four basic steps to assess operating property, or utilities. First, the market value of the entire unit is appraised. In the case of the Union Pacific Railroad for example, the entire company, from Omaha, to Portland, is appraised. Next, a "fair and just amount of value" is allocated to the state on interstate companies.

The third step is to equalize the appraised value to an amount representing the relationship of the assessed value to all other property in the state. Finally, the total equalized value is apportioned to the state's taxing districts. The county auditor levies the taxes, and the county treasurer collects them in each county, Vaughn said. He added the only property tax collected by the State Tax Commission is on private railroad car companies with assessed valuations of less than $100,000 each. This tax is Happy Turn to Story About Boy Bitten by Dog There's a happy ending to a story carried Friday in the Idaho State Journal about a boy bitten by a possibly rabid dog.

Mrs. Ronald (Judy) Dohse, 129 Spence, told the Journal on Friday the dog which bit Ricky, 13, last week had been located. Ricky had been scheduled to begin a two-week series of daily rabies shots if the animal couldn't be found. The dog is confined and is being watched, and apparently Ricky will not have to take the innoculations, which are given in the abdomen and are painful, Mrs. Dohse said.

Sedan Gone From Park, Owner Reports to Police City police are investigating several theft and vandalism incidents reported Friday and Saturday. Delmer Wilson, 835 W. Wyeth, told police his blue, four-door 1968 Plymouth was stolen from Memorial Park Friday night. The car displays Ada County (1A) license plates. A Head tennis racket and three tennis balls were stolen from Jane Carpenter's car while it was parked at her home, 1110 E.

Pine, Friday. Value of the equipment is $80. Rae Lowe, 524 W. Pine, reported the theft Saturday of a stereo from her home. Vandals did $50 damage to a window on a Jeep belonging to Bruce Canfield, 515 E.

Yost recalled the history of Idaho's tax structure and the present sales tax, passed in 1968 after a mid-1930's sale tax was passed and rescinded. In 1953, the property tax represented 44 per cent of total government revenue in Idaho and the income tax, nine pe per cent, Yost said. In 1973, property tax was 32.7per cent of the state's income and income tax, 20.6 per cent, he added.

In 1973 the sales tax was 17 per cent of Idaho's governmental revenue. Yost handed out a number of tables, definitions and explanations of Idaho's tax structure and of Idaho's tax burdens compared to those borne in other states. Yost defined the establishment of the profit system as "our great heritage." He added, "Most of our inflationary effects are coming onto us by (federal! regulations." He defined a community as a "conglomerate of economic endeavors." The size of the community depends on the economic opportunities, Yost said. Later, he noted Oregon used to be more attractive to new business than Idaho because Oregon's taxes were more favorable to industry. Now, he said, that no longer is so.

According to Host, the heading of a firm debating whether to locate in Oregon or Idaho a few years ago told him Idaho's lower residential property tax didn't matter, because he didn't care where people lived.
